as an australian who just started working at a native nursery i am loving these videos omg
I used to work in a native nursery on the Sunshine Coast, great job. Barely paid the bills.
@@somebloke3869 yeah I feel that. It's my first job and I still live at home so I'm fine and love it. We get lots of whole sale orders from local councils so that keeps us paid.
@@Tahaiga you’ll learn lol
Americans are smart? Damn, maybe god and global warming are real too!
those birds are Kookaburras, laughing at you, never seen an american before
Watch out for kookaburras. I'm not sure how they kill you, but I hear that everything in Australia kills you, so they must be dangerous somehow.
@Greg Artley now that is funny
@Greg Artley That's only danger, however. To kill you they'd vote GOP.
I don't live in Australia. For all I know just discussing Australian politics could somehow poison me.
@@azuritet3 australian politics certainly is poison
You ain't wrong, brother. It's very polarized. It's nice to sit and look at the plants. Keep botanizing.
@Real Donald Trump indeed.
Bernie Sanders 2020!
There are four species of mistletoe that only parasitize other mistletoes. They are fascinating
That's pretty cool ... Do you know the botanical names of any of them ... Id be interested in checking em out
@@cabinboy5282 ok I had it a bit wrong in my head. It's the species Dendeopthora epiviscum, as well as the two genera: Phacellaria and Ixocactus
@@jbertmccrackin8842 sweet thank you ... Got some quality reading to do this afternoon
Vegetative cannibalism!
Cool.
I appreciate your support of keeping wildlife safe from wandering cats. We have 3 within an enclosed back garden from which they can watch birds to their hearts content and live also in the house. We have multiple bird pairs that breed in our hedges in front and the fledglings are safe from our cats at least. And they're not shitting on people's gardens.
Oh my.... I've been watching your vids for a few months now and nearly fell out of bed last night when I saw you were in Lake Clifton, just 50km up the road!! You're awesome and I'm LOVING that you are showcasing this amazing part of Australia to the whole world. Are you coming/have you been to Manea Park in Bunbury? If not you really should, its orchid hunting season!!
Chelsea Hoyle Hello fellow Bunbarian!
'it would be nice to be flagelated with them' I spit up my coffee
Rolling joints in the morning to CPBBD is the closest to nirvana I may ever achieve in this incarnation.
@Real Donald Trump I live in Northern California, grow for a living. Got it handled \m/
you just gave me a great idea
@@coynerooski Livin the dream dude!
Nitomp, relative, gentle with our plant friends. Imagie scraping the scabs off a burn victim - the bark falls off when healing is complete. I was taught to handle plants gently because our touching does them no good and often harms where we don't see the effect immediately. Also, we transfer fungal and bacterial pests.
Glad to see you in my home country of Australia, I'm so proud of our intricate and delicate ecosystem and glad to see you cover it. Wonderful.
Kookaburra, the laugh is two (or more) of them, one goes koo-koo-koo-koo and the other ka-ka-ka-ka. I think, in breeding pairs, the precise synchronisation of the two voices signals the pair bond strength, it's territorial.
A kookaburra let me pet it's tail in high school. It was a special moment.
They tend to laugh before rain
I also heard the dulcet tones of the Brown Honeyeater (Lichmera indistincta) in this video. Pity the Laughing Kookaburra is introduced in the South-West and likes to eat the nestlings of our endemic birds. :(
We have cats, cats are assholes….. let’s move on to plants before I cry!
they are also not native the Western Australia but an introduced species from over East
That's why they call the Australian continent the land of fire. The ecosystem has adapted to actually coexist with fire. This is an amazing thing.
@Zerodovah no
It's one of the most interesting things about our landscape. It is a cultural landscape older than the last ice age. Without fire started by humans we actually lose biodiversity!
24:13. Dude you are seriously hilarious. Please continue to take us along for the ride. I love seeing things through your eyes. Seriously! Thanks
I'm honestly so in love with this dude... its insane; I'm insane.
Call me crazy, that makes 3 of us haha :)
That's crazy...
Ba-dump-tssshhh
THANK GOD. I thought I was goin crazy. But how can you not fall in love?
Kookaburra!
Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree
Merry merry king of the bush is he
Laugh, Kookaburra
Laugh, Kookaburra
Gay your life must be!
My ma taught me dat.
Morning, Joey!
*kookaburra
mjl whups...thank you!
lisa owen-nielson : I learnt it on BBC Schools Radio “Time and Tune” in about 1963
Chris Walford I think my ma got it off the radio here in the states probably around 1965. I’m assuming because that’s when I was in kindergarten and that’s when I learned it.
Real Donald Trump : planning a “rescue” mission?
The juicy bastard department.. truly the finest department!
🤣🤣👊
Joe Pesci having a 'you laffin at me'?! altercation with a Kookaburra. Mate I never thought I would see the day, HILARIOUS! 🙃
I kept hearing banksy and thinking about artwork being shredded hahaha
😄
i love listening to this while drawing. it's so entertaining!
I'm absolutely loving all these down under guys, beautiful place
I knew about the invasive eradication effort, not 1080 though. Thanks, very interesting!
Was doing rips, and relate to the psychedelics comment. You are the prof but I want to call you Dean-These videos are gold: every 30 seconds is worth a shitload of research.
My husband and I are starting a drinking game for every time you say Asteracia(sp?) ! Be trashed in 5 minutes.
Hi there, I was scrolling through the comments, because some are also gold. Looked like you were asking a question there, it is Asteraceae the family of daisies, sunflowers, groundsels, thistles etc etc. They used to be called Compositae because each flower is arranged on a disc to look like one big flower. Pretty sure I've soon Tony talk about this somewhere but they're amazing plants. If you take a typical daisy the yellow centre is made up of a heap of tiny flowers each with five petals fused into a tube. The white petals are similarly each a single flower but here the 5 petals are fused into a strap. This is really easy to see on a sunflower.
23:37 the bird call there was a kookaburra
If you put on closed captions it says [laughter] at 23:39 when the Laughing Kookaburras are calling.
I'm a native of Western Australia south west and swan region and this vid is Sooooooo freakin good worth a sub straight out - glad to see someone appreciate our flora as much as i do.
Only found you today while searching for info on Nuytsia floribunda, for our hobby farm , or as we call them Christmas trees ( or moodjar by the local Noongar people) - these Parasitic Bastids bloom like crazy within and around christmas ( we will decorate ours as a festive tree each year ) its a shame you didnt see it - and any one reading google dat sheet , absolutely amazing , the other tree indigenous to this and only this area i wish you could have seen in bloom is banksia menziesii , these two trees were freakin everywhere when i was a kid and miss seeing these little Bastids bloom
Again sooooo frekin good
Thank you for pointing out the increasing problem with feral cats! Keep them inside!
Botanical Fantasy Island! loving it, thanks!
"You could really go down a dark hole with this ya know, if you were on psychedelics ". Wonder if May Gibbs was high when she wrote about the "big bad Banksia men...
"Dune vegetation.... ?"
That moment when you know the roos are thinking about it.
Huh
I swear every video i watch has a comment of yours. Be it politics, late night shows or quite interesting or this botony all Except weed channels now that i think about it. I guess you dont grow your own oh and mma content. We definitely have common interests tho. Have a good one bro
Mate. Come to the tropical rainforest city of Cairns, North Queensland! I'll be happy to show you some pristine rainforest ecology, from where rainforest meets coral reefs and sclerophyl forests thrive. I've been following your work for some months now. So exited your in Australia! COME TO CAIRNS AND ILL BUY YOU A BURRITO!!
Andre Greenwood I visited Daintree some years ago and could hardly walk five feet without throwing myself at some poor plant to worship. My friends were very, very annoyed. Whatever, it was FASCINATING. You live in such a magical area!
That sounds like literal heaven on earth. My two favorite things: Coral reefs, and broadleaf evergreen/schlerophyllous forests.
Love your work, Really enjoyed your take on the Aussie bush, especially the laughing Kookaburra. Luckily you didn't get attacked by any drop bears!
Stop at a used bookstore. See if they have copies of Rica Erickson's books on Western Australian orchids, or plants of prey or trigger plants. May Gibbs will introduce you to the big bad banksia men. Locals refer to the compound fruit of a banksia as a cob. Oh yeah, the stalks coming out of the Caladenia flava flowers are known as calli.
U da man
I’m always amazed how you are able to find these amazing flowers.
“flagellated with em” Bwahahahahahaha!!
Wicked funny!!
Thanks for what ya do!! Much appreciation ✌🏼
I've got a few psychoactive acacia species I have been growing. Including maidenii, acuminata, jibberdingensis, confusa, and floribunda. If you ever see any over here I would love to see a video of them.
Dmt 👀👀 or you talking bout other psychoactive substances?!?!
The Tasmanian Tiger was a marsupial as well. All the larger mammals native to Australia are marsupials or monotremes, with only the bats or the rodents representing the placental mammals. At least till we 'civilized' it.
Really good choice for a break - Australia.
We do have one species of large mammalian predator, dingoes. Australian wild dogs that came down from Asia about 5000 years ago. I'll look up the actual number. Few small marsupial carnivores, quolls, numbats, tassie devils; but nothing that will take down a roo.
Historically we had things like marsupial lions and whatnot, but those went extinct. Dingoes managed to fill the missing niche pretty well though, unlike the feral cats and foxes
There's also one non-mamallian predator that will happily take down a roo if they happen too close to the waters edge.
@@BeholdItKnits I like that description, but they're in a limited habit themselves.
What your smelling is most likely dead foxes or feral cats due to the 1080.
You found that drosera and I immediately thought "sundew!" My first book on carnivorous plants was Mycol Doyle's "Killer Plants which is probably the only reason I knew of them. Now I'm stuck on the wiki page for carnivorous plants in Australia and some of these drosera are beautifully wild looking.
@crime pays but botany doesn't ive seen guava and refrigerator trees doing that same 360 bark regeneration when its all stripped off. its amazing. always reminded me of antler velvet growth.
Ah... Mr Crimes. Welcome to the sunny southern hemisphere 💕🌞
"All the mammals here pretty much have immunity to it" Most in WA where the study area was over a section of bush high in the compounds, more broadly it affects a lot of stuff.
p.s. When they say "Wild Dogs" they mean "Dingo, which occasionally might eat a Sheep while improving the entire habitat"
'gah.. everything hurts to touch' haha i could watch your vids for hours man.. welcome to western australia! sticking around for long?
As an Australian, seeing this brings me joy but also sadness when reminded how much of this beautiful nature and wildlife we are losing due to the overwhelming bush fires that are devastating the country.
Check it out online there’s plenty of news reports on TH-cam but most importantly check out ways to contribute a few dollars in donations to help out if you have some to spare to save some of this wonderful flora and fauna that we are all marvelling at here thanks to the brilliant Crime Pays But Botany Doesn’t Pay channel.
Hope you make it to the Australian Alps for spring time Tony. You wont regret it.
Nice! Those Banksia are awesome! Thanks for sharing with us sir.
What excellently strange and beautiful plants here!
The mosquitoes were after your caffeine rich blood probably
Banksia Grandis-leaf all leathery , Who likes to get slapped with that?
It's nice to see an interesting and exciting view of all the native species in the Australian continent.
I’m trying to get some banksia seed started right now but to no avail. Its gonna need some smoke pretreatment paper I think. This is a wonderful tour you’re giving here. It’s ripper flora alright. Oh, and no one has guns except the cops and the farmers!
I have never heard someone call a flower a bastard before now. Fascinating! 11:10 Now that's a noif!
The Nutsyia Floribunda is known by local Indigenous Noongar peoples as 'moodjar' and considered extremely sacred and known as 'the tree of souls'- to white fellas its the Western Australian Christmas tree.
Thank dog you make videos. I listen to them before I go to the stupid job that I hate and it’s the only thing that keeps me from going postal.
I went all heart-eyed at the terrestrial orchid bit. Good enough reason to visit the family I have there someday before I turn 30.
It feels to me that he gets a little excited when he comes to aus.
I love hearing his take on the flora and fauna.
Omg the name of this channel and video 😍😂😍
Have been enjoying your content for some time now. Glad you made it to Australia. Hope you had a great time. Cheers 😁👍
that 1080 shit is genius
27:27 one of those "fruits" you picked up there is the fruit of the kangaroo.
🤣
Those roos are puzzled as hell by your accent.
Lol!!
Love your work. Slight correction about predators. We have quolls in some areas. They are attacked by foxes however.
A lot of bush burn trees were used to make boats and baskets and stuff because of its regeneration. They'd take off the top healthy layer and burn off the sore so it'd scab.
Hearing a Bronx (?) accent talking about hibbertias and banksias is weird but good.
Chicago I think. It is really nice hearing his accent and botany.
@@FireRupee Sounds Mexican for sure.
Yep the kookaburra. They are fabulous and can be found all over Australia.
True, but these ones were introduced from the east coast. Southern WA doesn't naturally have Laughing Kookaburras (they do have the Blue Winged Kookaburra in the northern part of WA tho.)
@@BeholdItKnits I had no idea the laughing kookaburra wasn't found all over. I'm from the east coast so we have them everywhere
@@KiraPepper Yeah, same, I'm from Vic. They were also introduced to Tassie. If you combine the two main species they are (naturally) found in about 50-60% of the mainland (the southern halves of NT and WA, most of SA and a corner of SW QLD being naturally kookaburraless)
might be your best episode, yet, but I'd better binge-watch the rest of your content, just to make sure >_>
UCSC Arboretum has a great collection of Australian plants.
Still can't beat the original. Been twice want to go again. Sigh....
Someone give him a copy of “Snugglepot and Cuddlepie” by May Gibbs!!!
learns more about australian bush in 28 minutes than living here entire life ..yaya..gracias
Not sure where this was filmed, but as pretty as it is, Chamelaucium uncinatum is an invasive weed near Perth (native range near Geraldton, hence the name Geraldton Wax). Kookaburras are also invasive in the region! Not many people know that Australian natives can still cause problems within Australia (but outside their native range, even if it's within the same state!). Hope you come back one day, there is always more to see. The biodiversity here is insane. Love your videos! Also, sorry if either of these things are mentioned later in the video, I paused to comment this 😬
I'm learning so much from your videos. hope you're enjoying you trip while you're down here
hey think you for sharing with us on youtube .....
Do you know of anyone who does similar videos on succulents of South Africa / Madagascar / etc? I'm especially interested in seeing what Euphorbia looks like in situ outside the Americas. I really love your videos with partially buried cacti. It's so rare to see videos of commonly cultivated plants growing in the wild.
You're traveling now? Oh man, please go to Madagascar next.
Ryan Forsythe do we need to start a CPBBD travel fund?
I see you got a Crocodile Dundee knife - nice !
You seen the kind of critters down there that can fuck you up? I'd want a friggin battle axe.
I know this video is kind of old now, but the trigger mechanisms on Stylidium sp. usually do reset after being triggered! Very cool and intersting genus, I love them
I fucking love that you've taken a trip to Australia. I might not have a very large background in botany but I'm extremely proud about the orchid and carnivorous plant diversity we have. Another great video my man
God damn death lilies.. Beautiful Banksia Men :)
I love you so much! I needed a teacher like you back in high school.
You're in my part of the world! And at the best time of year too :)
Ah, broiling is better than baking, eh?
Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree.
Merry merry king of the bush is he.
Oh man you need to look up Snugglepot & Cuddlepie. Specifically the villains in the stories - the Banksia Men. Also my favourite tale about Nuytsia is that Telstra was having problems with their lines once, they kept being cut. In the end they discovered it was a Nuytsia, it's roots had found the lines, figured it was a root to parasitise and grew a haustoria around it and cut the line.
Wandering the bush, screaming at the birds, this is good stuff.
Man, you should do a cameo on gardening Australia or something
Fuck that would be off the hook eh
I've been thinking until late it'd be neat to see you pull apart Australian flora and fauna. Glad to see you're here - and what great timing to be here in spring. Hopefully the jakaranda flower before you leave. South west WA is a beautiful pocket of secluded evolution, segregated from the rest of the continent.
Jacaranda is an invasive from the Americas though.
@@BeholdItKnits I'll be the first to admit I don't know anything about anything -i didn't know this! But I meant it more as a symbol for summer rolling in
@@blakem4331 It's cool. I think CrimePays is only really interested in the native species though, that's why I mentioned it.
Look at that basal rosette ahhhhhh
Awesome plants.
Brilliant stuff.
No native "Eutherian" predators. I get you though, you teach me botany I teach you mammalogy.
Hilarious 😆 thank you again
Laugh Kookaburra laugh 😂 they are a snake and lizard eating bird, usually seen in pairs
One of these days if he's down there long enough he's gonna yell at the wrong magpie lol... should make for some good video though.
I just can't wait for him to hear the death knell of a Curlew.
It's still swooping (aka breeding) season so he might get (un)lucky.
Why? What happens if you holler at an Aussie magpie during the spring? And why do I feel like I’m getting set up by asking?
@@snuugumz They become very territorial and will swoop down and attack passers by. A kind of Magpie drive-by (fly-by?) if you will. If you search 'magpie attack' or 'magpie swooping' you'll see plenty of videos.
True story! Lost the sight in one eye after one got me as a 10yo
i was just there in australia earlier, i am loving seeing this video ♥
G’day from Alice Springs!
That orchid was so nice and sexy. I love the bright yellow
I just never really thought about letting the cat out.
there is something relaxing about your voice, inflections and grammar - have you done any books on tape?
jim ewok I really wish he would write his biography. He’s such an interesting guy and so smart. I don’t know how he can remember everything he does and that isn’t even his vocation. I’d love to knowWhat is growing up years or like to make him into the man he is.
I want him to read the bible to me.
The fire regeneration thing is probably evolution,, I mean our bush fire rating system goes from “low/moderate” then straight to “high” all the way to “extreme” and lastly “code red” lmao
On the way to Bunbury I see, last remaining remnant old Tuart forest down there. They are spraying the pig's ear/Arum lily invasion there. I always stop under the old Tuarts there on my way to Busselton, and the Arums seem to get thinner every year, so seems like the spraying helps a bit. Also those obnoxious arsehole Kookaburras are east coast invasive, and like all things from the anus of Australia, can be dismissed with derision and disgust. The only good thing east side is the road back west. Sometimes people from WA move to the east side, this generally increases the intelligence levels both sides of the nullabor, and what the shit.
Reluctant thumbs up from a Melbournian.
sthysel lmao I went east for 4 years at the turn of the century, came back West and still haven’t been back. There is some beautiful country there though like the Blue Mountains where I lived for a while and yeah Kookaburras are pricks they shouldn’t be here.... much like Queenslanders with southern cross neck tatts and xenophobic attitudes.
david smith lmao trigger easy? I don’t actually hate Kookaburras I’ve got far more problems than to invest in raging on Kookaburras but they are an invasive species and shouldn’t be here much like the Rainbow Lorikeet. As for far left hate words that is a new one to me, is Xenophobic not used by people on the right?! Are you from the states or something I was making calls based on actual people I’ve met nothing to do with political persuasion. I was actually born in Texas how do you know I’m not hard right? Or even neither, sweeping assumptions mate.
david smith you know what don’t bother responding to that, I’ve got far better things to do than message about ridiculous things like this. That will learn me for engaging in public comments on YT. Try not to take life to seriously it would be better for us all.
